Heya! I'm a traveling merchant...ever searching the world for rare and wonderful items.

Traveling Merchant

The traveling merchant appears in the Finest Fantasy for Advance and discontinued 2013 versions of Final Fantasy V. The party will first meet him in the Sealed Temple. To unlock the Sealed Temple, the player will have to acquire all the tablets. The temple is underwater, south of the Phantom Village. There will be bubbles on the surface of the sea, and going underwater reveals the rift. After meeting the traveling merchant, he can be found throughout the merged world at the inns of Karnak, Crescent and Castle of Bal, where he will sell ammunition for the Cannoneer job.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. (Skip section)

After being sucked inside the rift, the party finds three crystal fragments containing the Oracle, Gladiator, and Cannoneer jobs. Upon leaving, a traveling merchant will enter and introduce himself, stating he is searching the world for rare and wonderful items. His ship was caught in a storm and washed up in the rift. On the bright side of things, a mysterious cavern under the sea is bound to be full of loot, or so he figured.

The merchant notices the crystal fragments, exclaiming they are the rarest of the rare. He asks if the party understands the powers hidden inside the shards, but they do not have a clue. The traveling merchant goes into great detail and explains what their newly found jobs do.

The merchant would love to offer help to get the party started by selling ammo, but he is sold out. He is heading to his supplier, and afterward would be happy to help with all the party's ammunition needs. The merchant mentions he is always on the go, so the party should be on the lookout when they are in towns or castles. He is usually lurking around the equipment shops since he has got to keep tabs on the competition. Hoping this is the beginning of a profitable relationship, the merchant bids the party farewell.

Spoilers end here.
